'Maharaja' box office collection: The Vijay Sethupathi starrer is the highest-grossing Tamil film of 2024 in the USA

"Maharaja," featuring Vijay Sethupathi in the lead role, was released in theaters a few weeks ago and received high praise from critics. This milestone film, marking Vijay Sethupathi's 50th as an actor, performed well at the box office, quickly adding impressive numbers. Now, "Maharaja" has emerged as the highest-grossing Tamil film of 2024 at the USA box office, grossing over $500K (Rs 4.1 crore).The filmmakers have officially confirmed this achievement by sharing a new poster with the box office figures.
"Maharaja" is successfully in its third week of theatrical run and earned Rs 81 crore in its first 10 days. However, its momentum has slowed due to the box office dominance of "Kalki 2898 AD." Despite this, the Vijay Sethupathi starrer continues to earn solid numbers and is expected to soon break the Rs 100 crore mark, potentially becoming the actor's first film to do so. Meanwhile, Vijay Sethupathi and director Nithilan Saminathan attended the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles, where "Maharaja" had a special screening and captivated the audience.
Directed by Nithilan Saminathan, "Maharaja" also stars Anurag Kashyap, Natty, Abhirami, Bharathiraja, Munishkanth, and Manikandan in crucial roles alongside Vijay Sethupathi. The emotional thriller impressed the audience, with Nithilan Saminathan's engaging screenplay attracting fans, and Vijay Sethupathi delivering one of his career-best performances in his 50th film.
